‘Lucid Dream’ has its reasons for choosing Park Yuchun as its hidden card.When it came to choosing the “hidden card” in movie ‘Lucid Dream’
(directing by Kim Joon-sung/production by Road Pictures), they
decisively were able to choose Park Yuchun and Park In-hwan. ‘Lucid
Dream’ is a memory-trace SF thriller movie where Dae-ho(Go Soo) uses
lucid dreams to look for his son who was methodically kidnapped 3 years
ago, to look for clues hidden in his memories and chases after the
criminal.Commonly appearing in the dreams of many people around the world, it
is Park Yuchun who leaves a strong presence with the role of “This Man”
in the set-up of shared-dreaming being done. Why did ‘Lucid Dream’
choose Park Yuchun as their hidden card?This Man acted by Park Yuchun is the mysterious character who
suddenly appears in Dae-ho’s lucid dreams. This Man takes off from the
scene in haste when he is discovered by Dae-ho inside the dream, and
vanishes abruptly at the end of Dae-ho’s chase with him. Dae-ho
experiences confusion at the appearance of This Man; and then one day,
he happens to come across This Man in the real world. This Man lets
Dae-ho know about the existence of shared-dreaming.‘Lucid Dream’ had its crank-in [T/N: start of filming]
on April 6th, 2015. On his casting back then, Park Yuchun swept
Newcomer Awards debuting on the big screen with movie ‘Sea Fog’. He won a
septuple crown in the (Best) [Male] Newcomer Awards; from the 51st
Baeksang Arts Awards’, the 35th Blue Dragon Awards, the 34th Korean Film
Critics Association Awards, the 15th Busan Film Critics Association
Awards, the 51st Daejong Film Festival Awards, and the 10th MaxMovie
Best Film Awards up to the 6th This Year’s Film Awards[/the 6th Korean
Film Reporters Association (KOFRA) Film Awards]. Amid there was a lot of
interest focused on his next work because of that, Park Yuchun had
decided on not starring as a lead in ‘Lucid Dream’, but instead making
an appearance as a little character of the special appearance-type.Director Kim Joon-sung revealed a casting behind-the-scenes story in
an interview with Herald POP: “In the case of Park Yuchun, he was
sweeping Newcomer Awards with ‘Sea Fog’ at the time of casting. So I
didn’t think Park Yuchun would accept since This Man is a small role.
But while I was doing the project with Sol Kyung-gu hyung-nim, C-JeS
Entertainment CEO Baek Chang-joo recommended Park Yuchun. Naturally I am
very thankful to Park Yuchun for making an appearance”.Continuing Director Kim Joon-sung expressed his satisfaction in Park
Yuchun’s casting: “I was searching for a young actor to act as This Man;
and naturally seeing that it was the concept not for a lead but a
special appearance, I was wondering about who will be able to do it.
Meanwhile there was talk of giving the script to Park Yuchun. I found
out that he personally likes SF[/science fiction (sci-fi)] genre. Of
course I am grateful to him and he was interested in reading the script
when given it”.In particular Director Kim Joon-sung attracted attention at
disclosing his casting intention in the early stage, saying, “Truthfully
I tried to hide Park Yuchun’s appearance. Like how Matt Damon suddenly
appeared in ‘Interstellar’ in the middle of it or U-Know Yunho had a
cameo in ‘Ode to My Father’, I wanted to hide the fact about ‘Lucid
Dream’’s Park Yuchun’s appearance. Fans will like it when they watch if
they didn’t know about it. But it shortly became known since Park Yuchun
is very popular and highly sought out. I’m glad he is shown in the
movie as originally intended”.Continuing Director Kim Joon-sung praised: “In the case of This Man,
he is the person who does shared-dreaming entering into people’s dreams.
If you look closer at This Man’s home, there are images where he is
wearing different clothes with various hairstyles besides the computer.
Whenever you enter into dreams, you can enter changing yourself with the
image you wish,” and, “I wanted how This Man would fit long hair in the
real world, not in dreams. But it was a hairstyle that had been very
Micky Yuchun from his early days and rather looked pretty. It feels like
fans would also like it, too. I was afraid it would be awkward, but it
worked well. Truthfully there are only a few whose (outer) looks are
able to assimilate to all sorts of hairstyles”.‘Lucid Dream’ with Park Yuchun appearing as its hidden card will open on the 22nd.

I am proud of his imposing, dignified, cool image. I love very much the

[TRANS] 170204 Junsu’s letter to the fans at XIA Toscana Fanmeeting

When did I [last] write a letter, it seems
it’s been a long period to the point that I can not remember that I
didn’t write. It’s a bit awkward and embarrassing too. However, the
passed time, I’m thinking of recalling each single moment with you all,
who have always been there together with me and express in sentences
even if a little the emotions that are difficult to put in words. The
word ‘it’s the Last’ is a bit that but now when coming to the last
schedule that is in Jeju, my chest is somewhat like packed, I am happy
to see everyone’s smiling faces again too, it seems like a day [where]
the heart is complicated in many things. The time amongst the busy
performance schedule and every day [life], how was a day spent to the
extent that I don’t even know, days spent hectically continued but not
knowing when I’ll be able to see Jeju’s sea and again seeing everyone’s
limitless beauty my heart seems to feel refreshed, really many memories
have accumulated right? To open each single one, there are far too many
things that I don’t know talking about which one would be good.
Delightful happy times as well, tough and painful moments as well,
because you all, who without change walked together with me, were there
that I was able to always work hard. Thank you. Honestly the words that I
wanted to tell you all may just be all with this. To say and express in
detail what I am thankful for is difficult, to that extent thank you.
Just be receiving like this, what should I be doing. This, again asking a
question with no answer, it’s the hopeless me, for a short while I will
be separating from you all but even with that like it had always been,
myself like I will firmly accomplish so properly send your love and
support in the time from here on, meeting again with a delighted and
strong form, like having met yesterday and meeting today, just, in that
way like nothing happened, I say ‘Anyeong!’ that’s why. Ah wrong it
should be ‘Chunseong!’? (T/N: Salute) ^ ^ To say short it’s short, to say long it’s long but.. till that time. Remain like this okay. Thank you, really. = From Junsu

JJ: "Japan is my 2nd home" I didn't train after being discharged so I lost 14 kgs, almost same as 2
yrs ago. When I was in the army I weigh ~80 kgs, 90% was muscle( In the article, most of JJ's answers, he already mentioned during the Ment portion of the Lives.)He plans to act after the tour finishes in April. He is trying hard to be able to do activities in Japan but it is difficult.Via rubypurple_fan

Last December 30, JYJ’s Kim Jae-Jung (31) who finished military
service for about two years and started a concert tour over 8 Asian
cities as soon as possible. After the performance in Yokohama held from
February 7th for three days, he was interviewed<Japan tour of Asia tour began. Please tell me the impression of Yokohama Arena performance?>
JJ: It was a really lively show in Japan, so I was happy to see everyone
and it was fun. I was like “I came back!” But, honestly, I still feel
strange. Even if I return from the army, I am not used to this life yet
(laugh).<There were a lot of calls from the audience seats, “Welcome back!”>
JJ: When a lot of people said “Welcome back!”, I felt like “I’m home!”.JJ: Since Japan is also my second home country, I kept asking to return here as soon as possible.<Talk about Military Enlistment>
JJ revealed to read 140 books in 1 year and 9 months, during his military service in Army.<About the Live Concert and singing 19 songs>
JJ: My songs are generally high in key, so it’s tough to be honest. It goes from Ballads to Pop, R & B and Rock.
Because the genre’s range is wide, the way you use your voice depends on the song. The burden on the throat is also great.
JJ wants people enjoy the live concert and the fanmeeting, he value alot the interaction with everyone (fans).<I think that you will be active in solo for a while from now, but what kind of figure do you want to show as an artist?>
JJ: I’m thinking that I have to show the appearance as an actor after the tour finishes in April.Of course, as an artist I am trying hard to be able to do activities in Japan, but it is quite difficult.<Do you have any genres or characters you want to challenge?>
JJ: The character I’ve played so far seems to have a lot of heavy
feelings, so I’d like to do somewhat comedy-like things too. Fresh,
bright, gentle character and so on.<You became 31 years old on January 26th, what are your plan in you 30’s?>
JJ: After discharge, I feel like I can do everything. I want to act,
make new album if i have time. I want to also release a Japanese album
because fans hope so.<In the live show, You wore a jacket and showed a splendid pectoral muscle.>
JJ: It is not superb (laugh)
JJ: I didn’t train after being discharged so I lost 14 kgs, My current
weight is almost the same as 2 years ago. When I was in the army weight
was around 80 kgs, 90% was muscles.<It’s been 13 years since your debut. what are your thoughts about your future?>
JJ: I want to run in the future 30’s with the feeling like a rookie! (to work harder like when he was a rookie)

Movie ‘Lucid Dream’ will be released. The part people are interested
in as much as the fresh material on lucid dreaming is actor Park
Yuchun’s performance.Park Yuchun will be appearing as This Man in movie ‘Lucid Dream’. He
turns up in the dreams of Dae-ho(Go Soo) –who tries lucid dreams to look
for clues about the criminal who kidnapped his son–. But as a
mysterious man who appears in Dae-ho’s dreams, he takes off in a hurry
and causes Dae-ho to be more confused. Afterwards he comes to
face-to-face with Dae-ho in the real world, and as the person who
divulges about shared-dreaming, he is the hidden character in the movie.At Park Yuchun’s return to the big screen, interests in it were
gathered since last year. Although Park Yuchun, who is in the middle of
serving his military service currently, could not be in attendance at
the movie’s official promotions, the interests in his ability and acting
have been amassing.According to Director Kim Joon-sung, there wasn’t additional editing
in respect to Park Yuchun. Director Kim said, “This Man is an
interesting character who drifts between the dreams of people who are
well-informed about lucid dreaming,” and, “Park Yuchun immersed himself
well into the role of This Man. I am grateful to him. I didn’t
attempt to make additional edits”.In the movie Park Yuchun demonstrated
100% of his ability as an actor he’s proven up to date. From different
visuals in reality and dreams to his acting tone[/style], he completely
immersed him in different characters. He expressed a unique character
who is close to an eccentric person and doesn’t stand out; and moving
freely as he pleases among dreams, he subjectively creates the
mysterious character This Man.Although there is a small amount of him compared to Go Soo, Sol
Kyung-gu, and Kang Hye-jung in ‘Lucid Dream’, Park Yuchun unquestionably
demonstrated his imperative presence. He will unfold acting worthy of
the title of an actor who is paid attention to by Chungmuro.Now there is only the public’s evaluation left. There is much
attention indeed with Park Yuchun as an actor through a more mature
acting shown in ‘Lucid Dream’, receiving the public’s interests.Meanwhile movie ‘Lucid Dream’, including Park Yuchun, stars Go Soo,
Sol Kyung-gu, Kang Hye-jung, Park In-hwan, and Chun Ho-jin. It is set to
be released on this coming [February] 22nd.
